Copper isnt magnetic either but certain grades of stainless are magnetic, ie 430 grade commonly used for sinks, cutlery ect..

I nearly added the bit about copper but thought that stainless would be identifiable from copper .......  Roll Eyes  .... maybe it's a good job that oil coolers aren't made from cutlery  Wink
